and if you're in New England, don't settle for any other brand. Hood is well worth the price! This is a huge symbol of Christmas for me. When I was little my mom and I used to make our own, but it was never THIS good.
The holidays certainly do throw a wrench in all efforts to become more healthy. I'm coming to grips with this. I consider myself in the planning stages of action. I'll get there, but it's just not my moment yet.
Today, I was lazy (this laziness thing has something to do with our previous topic). Had I bolused for breakfast I would have been completely out of insulin (including the 11 units they don't tell you about). Not feeling like changing my site at my desk, I injected. I did the same for lunch and changed my set when I got home from work. I loathed injections before my pump. They were the cause of the majority of my diabetes angst! Now, I opt for injections over site changes. All things in perspective, I suppose.

I generally have 20 - 30 units left when I do a site change. I don't mind them at all, i enjoy them. They mean better sugars, generally. and i love homemade eggnog! mmmm!
I worry less about the holiday season lazy streak because I tell myself "everyone is relaxing a bit".
True? Probably not - but it makes me feel better anyway.
I totally feel you on the site change thing. Sometimes it's just not the right time! Better to take a couple injections than to skip the bolus altogether.
You can feel good, feel good, good about hood!!!!
